A very sad
aspect of this story is many people will consider Chris Dorner a hero when he’s
nothing but a ex cop turned criminal mass murderer!
The cabin
where Christopher Dorner was believed to be hiding has burned to the ground two
hours after the ex-LAPD cop took cover there following a raging gun battle in
which he killed a sheriff's deputy and wounded another.
The small
building caught fire about 4.15pm local time after SWAT officers fired several
tear gas canisters into the windows. The blaze spread rapidly, but deputies did
not appear to budge from their positions.
A single
gunshot was heard coming from inside the cabin before the cabin was fully
engulfed.
SWAT
officers stood down and walked away from the building about 45 minutes after
the cabin burned down, KCAL-TV reported.
Earlier in
the afternoon, hundreds of gunshots could be heard coming from the woods in San
Bernardino National Forest as officers exchanged assault weapons fire with
Dorner, who has promised to 'wage war' against police and kill any officers who
tried to stop him.
Dorner, a
combat-trained U.S. Navy reserve officer, shot two San Bernardino sheriff's
deputies as he tried to make an escape from the cabin, but was driven back
inside under heavy gunfire.
He then
bailed out of the truck and fled through the mountains on foot.
Federal
agents and San Bernardino County sheriff's deputies pursued him and engaged him
in a gun battle, KCAL-TV reports.
